Howdy Australia!! - Boeing's offer to 737 MAX 8 victims is called "disingenuous" - Dozens of defenseless people are killed in an attack on an immigrant detention center - America's justice systems grows more disturbing - And more in your CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

The United Nations says an attack on an immigrant detention center in Libya could be a war crime.  At least 44 people are dead and more than 130 are injured.  Libya's government blamed it on an air strike by forces loyal to rebel General Khalifa Haftar - but his forces accuse the government side of shelling the center.  The migrant center, an airplane hangar in Tripoli, housed mostly people who had crossed the desert from Sub-Saharan Africa.  UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called for an independent investigation "to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice".

Chicago-based Airplane manufacturer Boeing is setting aside US$100 Million (about AU$142 Mil) for the families of the people who died in the two 727 MAX 8 plane crashes in Ethiopia and off Indonesia.  But they won't get the money directly - the money will be paid to local governments and NGOs help families with education and living expenses and to spur economic development in affected communities.  A lawyer for a group of Ethiopian families said the fund "appears to be disingenuous", since it's being offered so soon in the litigation process and does nothing to release the remains of victims which are still at the crash site.

Prosecutors in Alabama have dropped manslaughter charges against a young woman who was shot in the stomach, which killed the woman's unborn child.  Yes, you read that right, police had arrested and charged the 28-year old shooting victim Marshae Jones for her own infant's death because she allegedly "started" the altercation.  Critics around the country accused Alabama authorities of politicizing the case by cynically misapplying the concept of "fetal personhood", which social conservatives have deployed to attack Women's Reproductive Rights, especially in Alabama.  "It is not in the best interest of justice to pursue prosecution of Ms. Jones on the manslaughter charge for which she was indicted by the grand jury," said prosecutor Lynneice Washington.

But that's America, and just because one miscarriage of justice was averted doesn't mean there aren't others.  New Jersey's appeals court had to step in after 70-year old Judge James Troiano allowed a teenage rapist to walk because he comes from a good family and west to a good school.  Troiano also excoriated prosecutors for not telling the victim that pressing charges would harm the rapist's future.  The rapist - identified for now only by his initials G.M.C. - raped the girl at a party in which alcohol was consumed and she had passed out.  G.M.C. recorded himself assaulting the unconscious girl and sharing the video with the caption "When your first time is rape".  Yep, he even admitted his crime and Troiano tried to let him off.  As we said earlier, the appeals court put an end to that and G.M.C.'s case will be tried in adult criminal court, where his identity will be revealed.

Italy's Navy is poised to evacuate the island of Stromboli after a volcano eruption complete with lava killed one person and sent dozens running for their lives, reportedly jumping into the sea.  The dead man, a 35-year old from Sicily, was hit by a falling rock from the blast.  Several hikers needed to be rescued from the island - which is located in Tyrrhenian Sea, off the north coast of Sicily - and volcanic debris ignited some houses and other structures.  The blast was the largest from the volcano since 2007.

The body of Sydney woman Ruth McCance was formally identified by Indian authorities.  She was part of a mountain climbing expedition on India's treacherous 7,816 meter Himalayan peak Nanda Devi in May that was caught in an avalanche.  More than 20 people have been killed in this year's Himalayan climbing season, including at least eleven on Mount Everest.

Rahul Ghandi has stepped down as leader of the Indian National Congress party after suffering two consecutive bruising election losses.  "Accountability is critical for the future growth of our party," he wrote on social media, "It is for this reason that I have resigned as Congress president."  Rahul Ghandi hoped to be the fourth member of his political dynasty to become prime minister - following his father Rajiv Ghandi, grandmother Indira Ghandi, and great-grandfather Jawaharlal Nehru.  But under his leadership, the Congress party dropped to only 52 of the 543 seats in the lower house of parliament in the face of the much less tolerant Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
